Thank you for the nice 2 box lots of music. I just ordered more on the new site. Many thanks!
I mean, you guys don't even read my comments anymore...so, should I even give you tips for shipping artwork? NO!
I use an Android phone. I take all the pictures with it and upload them to Google Drive. Then if I want to list a few items I can use my phone. I'll be listing lost if items I'll go on my desktop and open Google drive from there. All my pictures are there and ready to import and edit. This comes in handy because when I travel for work, I can take pictures and upload them to Google Drive and while in my hotel room I'll have them ready to continue listing.
Maybe check with the ups store, just to see about packing artwork, probably going to be going ups anyway due to the size, just a thought, we just got a ups store here finally (I mean I am not in the middle of nowhere,,, but you can see it from here, lol). So I haven't really checked into any pricing, just dropped there. Just thought it might be a good place to start, and if you pay to have it done there once, might give you idea/hints to where you can do it yourself.
2:05 Mount Vernon is George Washington’s estate (former plantation) close to Washington DC on the other side of the Potomac. I’m guessing it was this Mt Vernon because of the cherry tree association with G.W.
The guy in the painting is Andy Warhol.
just drop off at fed x and they wrap and ship. charge the buyer for the shipping you paid?
One thing about canvas printed unframed...find styrofoam and fill the back to give it a a sold base...Wrap and then cardboard top and bottom. then into a box with almost no extra space around the the canvas.
"Worst of humanity packed in a church." Hmmmm, I feel there's a life lesson there.😉
Ooh…that looks like Andy Warhol….
hey thats my second channel my main channel has 12k lol Love ya guys
@@RepairGang found it! That’s awesome man! Just subscribed there too
@@gramspopsvintage awesome 😎
My siste is a watercolor artist and there is a art box that she purchases to ship her art in . She said the boxes are pricey, I can ask where she gets them from. She says its worth the money because all her art work gets there . She sells large ones that are matted and have glass on them. I found them on uline and look up art box
Got had by the shipping manifest scan, F those usps employees they love when they do not have to work, make them scan every package and get that receipt. Save any future headaches ✌🏻💚🙏🏻
Very cool artwork!
Thanks for the good laugh....all those people needed Jesus....lol😅 Maybe they should have splashed around some Holy water.
You two are fun! I wish my husband would retire so he could join me also. Best of luck to you
Tons of bubble wrap in a tv box. I left the styrofoam inserts in it too
The auction professor on youtube has a great video on shipping framed art… super simple and I’ve done it a few times and it worked

Hey Oh!!!
yea pops keep the hat
i have sold quite a few of the bike carriers but mine were all the hitch style and i sold them on Cl. instead of ebay. I thought they were going to be a hard sale but they sold faster than the other stuff on the pallet that i thought would sell first so i started just sourcing them out and i can find them clearanced out usually at least once a year here
The most entertaining couple on KZread lol! I just love you guys.
I’ve shipped a lot of artwork (of varying value) and this is how I’ve done it without a problem. If it has glass use painters tape and cross hatch across the glass (if the glass breaks that decreases the possibility that it will go all over and or dig into the artwork). Cut a piece of cardboard the size of the frame. Put it on top and wrap really well w shrink wrap. (If there’s a void between the glass and cardboard then layer bubble wrap to fill the void) Then cut pool noodles and slide onto the all four sides of the frame. I then wrap heavily w bubble wrap and then slide into a box. (The wrapped canvas prints - haven’t shipped those but guessing you could wrap the canvas first in stretch wrap then cardboard then another stretch wrap to hold cardboard in place. That would create a layer so if the cardboard shifted it wouldn’t damage the wrapped canvas), follow w pool noodles and bubble wrap. I’m sure there’s other ways but I’ve had no problem w the above practices. The first few will take some time but once you get the hang of it it’s pretty easy. Good luck!
I agree. I was just going to mention that painter tape in a big X across the glass
I work as a custom picture framer and this is correct way to ship - also if you can - put the art in a bag then cardboard front. for stretched canvas cardboard the front and the back. If in a bag you can tape cardboard in place because tape will stick to bag not art. Cling wrap all 4 sides, wrap in bubble and box it. The pool noodles are a good idea.
Also, i recommend that you Do not go FedEx, go UPS instead. I have recieved framed art at minimum 4 times literally run over by the FedEx truck, actual tire marks across the box. I refuse to use FedEx for that reason.
I've shipped several paintings of various sizes and shapes. Can confirm. This guy packs. *Instead of the mass quantities of bubble wrap, I light bubble, make cardboard or bubble corners, then pack the heck out of it in multiple layers of cardboard. This is on larger art usually. Auction Professor has an old video of it. The box usually looks ugly, but it's sturdy as heck. (Don't use his fill method. The overall concept is sound, but the implementation is kinda trash, lol.) His title is: How To Safely Ship Big Picture Frames & Mirrors Complete With Glass
Just wanted you to know I don't hear the air conditioner... so keep it running so you stay cool!!
That was me, LOL. My name is Bob.
Okay that thumbnail is hilarious it reminds me of a Dark souls game lol
Swinging the swung vase!!
Question for the next question video: Is it supposed to burn when you pee?
I don't have an iPhone because I'm an adult.
It's not the phone, I can load up videos from my Samsung to Etsy with zero issues, It's an issue with the eBay app. Given eBay is an older technology, it doesn't surprise me and that's my IT background talking lol.
Corey I agree with you about the phones iPhones are the best
Yay 🎉 Very nice of you both. I have a video from the Rally we briefly talked while Kevin(Commonwealth Picker) and John (Cincinnati Picker) were giving their speech in the meeting room. Both of you were standing behind Joel (American Bubble Boy). We look forward to seeing you both again someday. You both are an Awesome couple. 👍
I like my Android also...just don't want to learn anything new these days.
You’re not lying about swung vases. The sell through rate is awful. Unless you under priced. I used to sell a lot of vases 5 years ago. Now I might sell one every 3 months
Awesome video
Enjoy watching your videos. So interesting learning about the reseller business for a person who likes to collect.
I use quick share on Android to send my photos and videos to my PC
Another great info filled vlog. Thanks guys
I've had both apple phone and computer. And android phone and Dell computer. I'll stuck with android.😊
I have an iPhone, the problem is I do NOT have an apple computer. So just buying an iPhone will not solve the problem you also need the apple computer. They cost too much for someone who only uses their computer for eBay. I transfer my videos by just plugging my phone into computer. It’s even faster than air drop if you have decent internet.
You can bulk edit “handling time” if you do not have business policies. Going to business policies was the worst decision I ever made on ebay. I HATE business policies being an everything seller.
Hi y'all
😊
I'm so introverted, small talk is ughhh. i'd rather pay full price than chit chat.
Awesome information
How much would you say is a good amount to pay for a Barbie Lot? say 20 of em
I typically don't pay more that $1-2 per Barbie.
Nip/tuck was the story of a pair of California based plastic surgeons. Watched a few episodes when it debuted, but it got repetitive fast, so I stopped.
I run my store and have difficult time getting over 275 listings. Each week, I take 75 listings, end them, and sell similar. I bulk adjust and drop prices by 2%. It used to work really well. I decided a few months ago to promote 75 listings at 2%. It went well, but I think they expect more. I started removing promoted listings (just the promotion) and they have killed my sales. I believe firmly, since I was promoting heavily and quit, they truly have an algorithm that will discriminate againt sellers.
Going into a strangers house to buy a camera sounds a little dangerous to me.
